Latest research suggest sucking on infant’s pacifier can offer allergy protection

A new research suggested that parents should not be afraid of sucking their infant’s pacifier. This advice might sound distasteful but depending on the place where the pacifier was dropped, you could evidently protect your infant baby from actually developing any allergies.

These findings are now being presented at an annual meeting being organized by American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology. The meeting is to be held at Seattle on November 19^th. According to the researchers, the mothers who usually clean the pacifiers by actually sucking on the same provide the infants a better scope for lower response to allergies.

The study involved interviews conducted with 128 mothers over a term of 18-months while asking them the process used for cleaning the baby pacifiers. Out of the 74 mothers whose babies actually used one, about 74 percent mothers stated that they washed them with their hands. The rest 41 percent stated that they sterilized it while the remaining 12 percent reported that they used their spit to clean these baby soothers.

No proof, effect, or cause of the same has been provided by the research as of yet but the research does point out to better immunity in terms of allergies with this practice.
